New Music Videos

Since the entire concept of music video programming is minimal beyond recognition, I want to give them to you straight. A lot of music videos do not see the light of day on network television unless die-hard music lovers and bloggin' folk like myself give it to the people, so let's go......

Robin Thicke Feat. Estelle - "Rollacoasta"




This track is dope. Its got soul funk bass, with some eighties synth. Add in Robin Thicke's smooth falsetto & Estelle's british soul swag, and you've got it........ its a jam for me. The video is sexy & dripping with fashion, from director: Gil Green.





Christina Aguilera - "Not Myself Tonight"

Alrighty, Christina is an undeniable talent with a voice like WOAAAA. The track is hot, and she looks amazing in the video. I am not all that excited about the concept, but she is doing her thing.....dominatrix swagger if you will. I will let you form your own opinion. The main thing that has me boggled though is that.......GASP ! ...... Hype Williams directed the video ! If you don't know who Hype Williams is, then I suggest you Google him right now. Christina's fifth studio album is in stores June 8th.




Drake - "Over" 

Hate on him all you want  to, but Drake is my dude. His mixtape, "So Far Gone", was my favorite dose of winter hip-hop. I had it in heavy rotation on my i-tunes. Now, Drake is back with "Over", the first single for his upcoming first full studio album. The video, directed by Anthony Mandler, is great. The vignettes projecting through-out are really cool. The album, "Thank Me Later", is in stores June 15th.
